What SHOULD I be running?
I have a 1989 L98 IROC-Z that weighs 3812lbs with me in it.
So far my best time is 14.4 @ 96mph. That was with all the mods in the sig except at that time I DID NOT HAVE: a fuel pressure gauge (hence, my AFPR wasnt doing anything), headers, SFC, hypertech thermomaster chip, 160 stat, ram air with gutted air boxes and TB coolant bypass.
What should I run now that I have those mods in there? Can I break 13's? Can I trap at 100mph?

That 14.4 @ 96mph is with a 2.1 60' time. I think I can do better than that, but not all that much better.

My 60 ft times are 2.0 fairly consistantly.. that's with street tires and stock rear suspension set up.
I would think you should be able to get 1.9's out of yours.
That would bring your ET down around 14.1 or so..
how was the weather when you ran?
